Fun fact: Iquitos, Peru is both the largest city situated within the Peruvian rainforest, and the largest city to be inaccessible by road. If you're going to stay in the heart of the Amazon, it should come as no surprise that you'll need to make the voyage by plane or boat. That's nothing to be disgruntled about though; take pleausre in the journey when you get an aerial view of the Amazon Rainforest from your plane. The sight of winding rivers making their way through dense forests is rather incredible. Speaking of the rivers, if you're making the voyage by boat, take a moment to appreciate the fact that you are cruising down the waters of one of the world's most precious resources.
